After almost 2 years..... hola folks, I am still alive!!! Honestly, I never thought I'd visit this blog again, especially after I terminated the domain. But I guess miracles like today still happen, you know, that day when all of a sudden you want to write and you have so much time to do it ...AND miraculously, you also have the energy to sit down and open a laptop for that urge, rather than just ending up on social media. LOL!

Just a quick recap of my last for last 20+ months. I gave birth to Lorenzo a few weeks after my last post, motherhood happened, obviously, followed by the zombification of the self - sleepless nights, grumpy mornings and all. LOL! So many things changed, and I don't think I can write everything in detail (for now) so I'm gonna share only what I can:

Throughout motherhood, I heard from all over, "Nights are long, but years are short" --this is so true! I never had time to write because for the most part of motherhood, so far, I don't even have time for myself. I look forward to getting a good night sleep, only to feel still tired the next morning. haha! It's been all about survival, until just recently when I realized that infancy stage is really over. I have a toddler now who walks, runs, eats and throws a tantrum. Where is my baby?! where did time go?!

Lou and I have been on the same team for the most parts of parenting. We are still both working full time with #noyaya! It is really HARD, but I wouldn't have it any other way. A lot of friends already asked me about the mechanics of this, so I'd rather set aside thoughts on this for another post (hopefully!). We jumped into trends you'll hear these days - cloth diapering, baby wearing, baby led weaning, and just recently, homeschooling. And as for our home, we've been into minimalism (as I've written before) and waste reduction, hence I felt the need to revive writing so I can share all these things.

Oh, and we're drowning in Netflix these days. LOL!

That's it for now. More posts later on about motherhood and random things, hopefully! Until blogging is not yet completely dead, and while I have no time and guts to make vlogs, I hope this old blog of mine will suffice!
